My decision about who to vote for is based on the track record of each
candidate and party - not what they say they'll do, but what they've
done in the past. Actions speak louder than words.


So, as the only Conservative record in London is to abolish any form of
co-ordinated government for the city, whereas Labour's record includes
zonal fares, traffic reduction, increased investment in public
transport, public space renewal, urban regeneration and the rest - it's
all a bit "what have the Romans ever done for us?", isn't it?


You may very well think that; i couldn't possibly comment.

And I am not too chuffed at the prospect of the three most powerful
Conservatives in the country all having been in the same
restaurant-wrecking public school drinking club.


I'm not so bothered about that. It's more the nation-wrecking public
school politics club they're all in that i worry about.
